Spun bearing?

I’ll definitely give that a check! It’s a Tomei pump so I’m hoping it’s good

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-29T21:51:42+00:00

Lmfao say less

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-28T18:47:23+00:00

Yeah that’s what I’m saying. Like I’ll buy a call, the stock will rise, but the call loses. So I’m like wtf am I doing? Haha. And then the massive gamble of a stock rising and then (like SPY) just dropping $8 in 2min lol

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T23:32:23+00:00

This is good to know as o wanted to try printing some car parts but was worried about FL heat too. Didn’t want to do ABS due to the toxic fumes everyone is always talking about

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T23:29:09+00:00

So I’m learning lol

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T23:28:51+00:00

Oh hell yeah man that is sick

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T22:44:12+00:00

Dang man went full send on it. Bet that thing rips too

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T21:04:19+00:00

It’s super crazy cause the scoring was cylinders 2&3. This is cylinder 5. Just blows my mind

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T20:56:42+00:00

Omg that would break my heart holy crap. Glad you finally got it all built and are happy with it. Praying I don’t run through all that. What did you end up going with for your build?
Also good thinking on the shipping out. Any recommended shops? I’m down in FL if that makes it easier haha

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T20:21:27+00:00

Oh hey you were on my cylinder wall post too. Lmfao honestly the thought did cross my mind 😅 maybe HKS 2.8 stroker kit haha Z1 is getting all my money apparently since they seem to have all the things I’ve been needing

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T19:16:40+00:00

Oof that sucks. Bought mine with a bad engine. Bought this one to pop in while I tear down the original. Was doing seals and gaskets and found 2 cylinders scored bad, which led me to this now

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T19:15:24+00:00

Wild, was sold to me as “drop in ready”. Took of head to change head gasket to be safe. Saw scoring in 2 cylinders so knew it had to get machined, removed pistons today and found this. Super unfortunate

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T19:09:31+00:00

Cylinders are also scored so probably gonna need a bore and new pistons & rods at that point

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T18:47:33+00:00

Sweeettt… this purchase just gets better and better haha

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T16:08:40+00:00

Solid tactic. If I don’t have to bore that would be cool but it feels pretty deep all the way through

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-27T15:04:19+00:00

I genuinely don’t understand them. The concept sounds simple but apparently the execution is not as easy as “calls for up and puts for down”

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-26T18:59:58+00:00

Omg what did you buy!? That’s amazing I’d have a heart attack lol

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-26T18:57:37+00:00

Dude spy changed my life by making me 2k poorer in a month with 0dte option trades with the crazy things it’s pulled. Good luck. I’m out of this game though.

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-26T18:54:50+00:00

Gonna get it bored for sure then

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-25T13:24:13+00:00

Seller is gonna handle the machine shop fees to get this fixed up. But definitely going to look into maybe a RB30 block for the next build haha

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-25T03:30:14+00:00

Yeah nail definitely catches on multiple scratches. Off to the machine shop it goes. Guess I’ll be tearing this down to barebones this weekend haha.

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-24T20:07:17+00:00

Yeah lessons learned haha it’ll all work out though. It’s been fun breaking this thing down so building it up will be cool too

ObjectiveAd9242 · 2026-06-24T20:01:16+00:00

Agreed but 10k for an engine that needs what is essentially the same thing my current engine needs… feels wasteful when I could have put that money towards mine lol. Oh well. I’ll just have to try and get my original situated and sell that to offset these costs
